Hi, really simple question I hope.I have searched on the Ubuntu forums as well but mint seems to treat this differently.When I insert an audio cd in the drive the only option I have is to open disc copier, there is not an option to play.There is also no option in the nautilus action media folder apart from "ask what to do" or "open disc copier"How can I get vlc to autoplay cds in mint Elyssa.Thanks for your help.

When you go to Nautilus ( Home Folder ) > Edit > Preferences > Media tab and open the combo box ( drop down menu ) for "CD Audio" there should be at the very bottom an option labeled "Open with other Application" which will allow you to choose whatever you want. Is that option missing?

Please add a [SOLVED] at the end of your original subject header if your question has been answered and solved.
